From the Archives: Don't Sweat the Holiday Stuff-A Tale of Two Santas (orig.pub.@Rockonmommies)

This post was originally published last year on Rock On Mommies.

When I think back on my childhood Christmases I have to say that, in my memory? They were perfect; filled with twinkling lights, beautiful music, yummy food and thousands of hugs. The other day I was having lunch with some of the other Rock On Mommies, and we went around the table sharing our favorite childhood holiday gifts.  I was shocked to discover that, although I can remember the way my Great-Aunt Rosie smelled (Giorgio) and I can remember my cousins playing “Silent Night” on their clarinets (shrill, but charming) I can’t really remember my presents very much.


That was really eye-opening. Especially when I think of the hours I’ve spent agonizing over getting just the right gifts for my family and friends. I have actually lost sleep. Over the presents.  Oh.

Then there’s all the hours making sure everyone arrives on time and that everything falls into place just so. Because I want the holiday to be perfect-just like I remember, right? But when I really looked at my memories (and the photos) I was shocked again to realize that what made those memories so warm and fuzzy for me was, in fact, all the imperfections.

When bad recipes go good: Nacho "Sugar" Mama's Candy! #POSITIVISIMO

'Tis the season for baking and making all kinds of tempting treats! Almost all of my favorite holiday treats are based on one vital ingredient-MILK!  There's my mother's flan (the recipe is top secret and she won't even share it with me, let alone the internet), Tres Leches cake and fudge. Of course, it wouldn't be Christmas in our house without Mexican Hot Chocolate! 

But this year I wanted to try something different.

Last year, I developed a YUMMY Christmas Cookie recipe that calls for Dulce de Leche candy. For those of you who don't know, Dulce de Leche is a milk-based confection popular in Latin America. It's not the easiest thing in the world to make, and the "shortcut" method involves boiling cans of sweetened condensed milk for hours on end. This method is not only time consuming, but very dangerous-sometimes the cans explode!

But I had lots of leftover condensed milk from the fudge I made last week and thought I'd try to find an easier way. So I did an online search and found several "recipes" for making Dulce de Leche in the slow cooker. EASY! Following the directions to the letter, I submerged my cans of sweetened condensed milk in water in my slow cooker, set the temperature to LOW and let it cook for 8 hours.

Then I let the cans come to room temperature (again, to avoid explosion). And when I opened them up I had.....two cans of room temperature condensed milk. It was a COMPLETE FAIL! Not one to accept failure, I poured the milk into a pan on my stove and stirred it until it turned a yummy caramel color.

Then I poured it into a pan that I, thankfully, lined with foil and let it cool. And when it cooled I had something that *looked* and smelled exactly like Dulce de Leche BUT was as hard as a rock! It was nevertheless delicious, and very similar to "Sugar Daddy" lollipops-which I happen to love.

So-I broke it into pieces and packed it up for my friends with labels reading "Nacho 'Sugar' Mama's Candy"!

See? When you're cooking with milk the glass is always half full!!

If you need some help seeing the glass half full this holiday season, be sure and

RECIPE: Nacho Mama's Mexcellent Holiday Fudge! #Eagle



As I may have mentioned before, I'm not so hot when it comes to making desserts. But I'm a pretty good fake and am always up to learn something new. So when I was approached by the folks at Eagle Brand to come up with a dessert using their Condensed Milk? I was all in!

Borden is hosting it's "Sweet Secret Recipe Contest" from now through December 7th. Click HERE to learn how  sharing YOUR holiday recipe could get you a chance to win $10,000 towards a "sweet secret" wish!

I was SO happy with my recipe when it was all done. Because I'm trying so hard to stick to my freshly-adjusted Daily Pointsplus Target (more on that later) I decided to try to make a recipe using the Eagle Fat-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk. So here it is:  

NACHO MAMA'S MEXCELLENT HOLIDAY FUDGE!

Number of servings: 42
Pointsplus per serving: TWO! (or at least it's 2 pp+ per *piece* - how many pieces you decide a serving is is up to you!)

Ingredients:
1 14oz can EAGLE Brand Fat-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 cup DARK chocolate Morsels
2 cups MILK chococlate Morsels
1/4 teaspoon each: Cinnamon, Fresh-ground Nutmeg, Chili Powder
Dash of Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

First, pour the entire can of EAGLE Brand Fat-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk into saucepan and stir in the salt and spices.

Then add all the chocolate morsels and melt into the Condensed Milk mixture, stirring constantly over low heat until smooth:

Once the chocolate is completely melted, spread the entire mixture evenly into a 9x12 inch pan (lined with wax paper) and allow to cool at least 4 hours before slicing and serving.
That's IT!! It was sooooo delicious, the spices give the fudge a yummy warmth. I'm going to be slicing this baby up to give as gifts to my daughter's teacher and family friends. I hope you'll give it a try this holiday season. It's just TOO EASY!!!

Another possible benefit of Milk...a better, fitter body? #Positivisimo

BEFORE: One year ago!

Many of you know I have been on and off of Weight Watchers  for yeeeeeeeears. As I look at my progress over this last year in particular, I can see that my success is directly linked to my meeting the plan's daily "good health guidelines".  These guidelines include water servings, fruits and vegetables, etc. But the one I always seemed to have trouble meeting was the requirement of 2-3 daily servings of dairy. WHY? I don't know, I just got lazy about it I guess.


Every year I participate in a fashion show to benefit TACA (Talk About Curing Autism). The photo above was taken right before I went onstage in last year's show, in December 2010. 

I hadn't looked at this photo in a while, but recently pulled it up because this Saturday is this year's TACA fashion show. I was very pleased to see how much healthier and fitter I look now. I KNOW it's because I've been faithfully following the good health guidelines-especially my daily milk!

I have not missed my servings of dairy (usually skim milk on my cereal and some greek yogurt) for even ONE day since October 1st! I don't know *exactly* what the milk is doing, I just know I started having more stamina and could work out harder and for longer stretches of time once I started getting those daily servings in. Is it the milk? I can't say for sure, but I know it can only be helping!
I could NEVER have done this before I started drinking my milk!


The results so far? Well, here's me in an outfit I'll be wearing in this year's show:


I'm so pleased with how much better I look and feel now than I did a year ago. I know it makes ME want to stick to my daily 2-3 servings of milk-especially through the holidays! I couldn't have done it without the Master of the Glass Half Full and his magical white elixir-MILK!
May we all experience the healthiest holiday season ever!

From the Archives: My Big, Fat American Thanksgivings


I grew up in a BIG Mexican-American family. And we did everything BIG. Especially holidays. And ESPECIALLY Thanksgiving.

It was probably our biggest and most difficult-to-navigate holiday.

Christmas was easy: Christmas eve with Dad’s side of the family and Christmas Day with Mom’s side. But Thanksgiving was a NATIONAL holiday. A day to celebrate alongside our neighbors, regardless of color or creed, as AMERICANS. Splitting up Thanksgiving over two days would be un-American! 

So here’s how I spent every Thanksgiving of my childhood:
First, we’d head to my dad’s parent’s house. All the adults would squeeze into the living room and they’d drag picnic benches into the kitchen for us many, many kids. Dad’s family usually served the meal around noon. (I know!) The food? Was SO. GOOD. We’d gorge ourselves on the rich “American” fare we truly only ate once a year: Turkey, Yams, etc. Everything swimming in butter. Only “American” music would be played: big band, Mathis and Doris Day. After my Aunt Maria’s delicious homemade pumpkin pie, we’d end our festivities with, what else? A BIRTHDAY PARTY. Oh, yeah! Several family members had late-November birthdays and my grandparents would take advantage of having the whole family under one roof. So we’d bust into the 2-hours-old “leftovers” and then, naturally, we’d have cousin Becky’s butter-filled layer cake for dessert!
(My dad, left, and his brother Jess with their post-Thanksgiving birthday cakes)
Then we’d head over to Mom’s family home. You know, for Thanksgiving.

It was a short trip from East Cedar Street to West Cedar Street, where my mom’s parents lived. They served the meal at 4pm-which meant we had to leave the birthday party early. Mom’s family was just as big and it was just as tight a squeeze to seat everyone. Only problem? The food was better at the first house. It was! With Mom’s family, you could bet that the giblet bag had been baked inside the bird. Or that the mashed potatoes would be too thick to penetrate with a steel serving spoon. Or that the bread could be used to shatter the windshield of your worst enemy. (Before you get insulted, Aunt Sheila, may I remind you that they literally could not slice that bread with a saw.) And we were SO FULL. But we HAD to eat! So eat we did. And the fact that the food was so much better at the first house was always very quickly mitigated by the fact that the laughs were so much bigger at the second house.
By nightfall, my parents, my sister and I would be too full to sleep. We are blessed to eat and we are blessed to laugh, but take it from me: over-eating and over-laughing should only be mixed on very, very special occasions. It’s the American way.
What were your crazy Thanksgiving traditions? I can’t be the only one!

Thankful for Milk Because...it can Soothe the Savage Mami! #Positivisimo



We all know that some warm milk seems to have a magical calming effect on our kids, yes? But I recently discovered that milk works it's wonders on Mamis too!


Like many of you, I have been running around like crazy, shopping, cooking and making crafts like these...




Now, while I LOVE shopping and cooking and crafting, somehow doing it all with the added pressure of company and kids who are not in school (and are instead in my hair)-I find myself going just a teensy bit loca.


The last couple of days it has been pouring rain and my kids have some serious cabin fever. I finally got my toddler to settle down last night with some warm milk-whew! But this morning when I looked around at my MESSY house and started to think about everything I need to do before Thanksgiving? Let's just say I was cranky enough to give my 2yo a run for his money!


I managed to stop myself *just* before I had a screaming tantrum and realized that if warm milk could work on my son, maybe it could work for me too! When I was a kid my Mama Lola used to make me a nice hot mug of cafe con leche in the afternoon. So I got out my largest "Latte Love" mug and whipped up some ccl. Then I went OUTSIDE to calmly sip my yummy, soothing beverage and enjoy the silence and fall foliage.
I feel better already!
It worked WONDERS! I was ready to take on cookies, napkin rings and turkey hands to beat the band!


But first? I think I'll whip up some Mexican Hot Chocolate for the whole family. :)

Happy Birthday

Today, I was watching my favorite episode of my favorite cooking show, Paula Deen, when I realized that Nacho Mama's Blog is one year old! I can't believe all the wonderful people I've gotten to meet and all of the awesome things I have gotten to do over the last year as a result of this blog. THANK YOU ALL for your lovely tweets, comments and emails-you've made this experience so much more than I ever imagined it would be.

I guess the birthday passed pretty much unnoticed because of another, very special, birthday that is coming tomorrow. November 20th was my late father's birthday, which he shared with his older brother Chuy. Since my dad passed away from prostate cancer almost 7 years ago, his birthday has always been kind of a sad marker for me. Even though I know his spirit is always with me, I can't help but think of all the things that happened over the last year that he would have especially enjoyed-especially things having to do with my kids. I spent last November 20th visiting my Uncle Chuy for their birthday, he was in the hospital being treated for prostate cancer. We had a really nice talk and he shared some sweet memories of himself and my dad when they were kids. It was one of the last times I ever saw him. This November 20th I am thinking of his kids and how much they must be missing him. I know my dad and his brother will be together tomorrow, each with his own cake prepared by their mom.

How healthy is YOUR mouth? #HDASurvey

OK, I admit it. I don't take as good care of my mouth and teeth as I encourage my kids to. And according to a new survey put out by the Hispanic Dental Association along with Crest and Oral-B? I'm not alone.



It seems that 67% of U.S. Hispanics (like me) consider their overall health to be either "good" or "excellent"-sounds great, right? Here's the problem-TWO THIRDS of us have had at least one oral health issue in the past year. 

I am SO a part of this statistic. Last year, I had to have a tooth pulled and an implant put in. It was extremely painful, I lost an ENTIRE WEEK of work and I am STILL paying it off! I wish I could say I'm an isolated case in my family, but unfortunately, I'm not. Yes, my grandparents had dentures-but my parents' generation (who had ready access to dental care) were somewhat lax in addressing their oral health issues.  And I'm just as guilty of letting things go for far too long before seeing my dentist (even though I have a FABULOUS dentist)! 

I don't know about you, but this is one case where I definitely DO NOT want to be in the majority! I was plain shocked at how Hispanics fared against the general population in this regard. After taking this brief survey, I was able to see the very simple steps I need to take in order to keep a healthy and happy mouth. I'm a little embarrassed to admit there were a couple of questions I got wrong, but knowledge is power and now I can help my kids to not only practice good oral hygiene, but I can also help them understand WHY it is so important to have a healthy mouth!
Oh sure, it LOOKS like a healthy smile-but is it?
Now that I'm armed with the facts, I have no excuses for letting my smile go un-managed! What about YOU? Are you doing all you can to keep your chompers chomping into your golden years? If you'd like to learn more about this groundbreaking survey, please visit www.crestcomplete.com/study


AND KEEP SMILING!

From the Video Vault-Guess What I'm Making for Dinner Tonight?

ENCHILADAS! This clip cracks me up AND makes me hungry at the same time. I *don't* think I'll be following their recipe, though. Seems like a muy loco way to make enchiladas to me! (Maybe because none of them are Mexican?) 


What? You don't dance around barefoot in your slip when you want enchiladas? 


BTW-how is it they missed the opportunity to rhyme "peso" with "queso"? Their dramaturg was SO alseep at the switch on this one!

Nacho Mama's 4-point Orange Creamsicle Pie! #Smuckers

Something you may not know about me is-I absolutely adore jam! Where most folks enjoy their pancakes, waffles and french toast smothered in maple syrup? I'll always reach for the marmalade or boysenberry jam.

So when Smuckers sent me an assortment of their jams to review as part of their Spreading Smucker’s® Traditions Recipe and Essay Contest, I was delighted to try and come up with an original recipe using one of my favorite ingredients!

Ok, it's not *entirely* original! One of my favorite recipes is this blackberry pie by Paula Deen
(you KNOW how I love her!). When I tried the Sweet Orange marmalade, it kind of reminded me of a creamsicle and I thought, "Why not make an ORANGE version of Paula's recipe?" Also, I wanted to make it as friendly to my Weight Watchers plan a possible. After a little fiddling, I came up with a pie that my whole family LOVES! You won't believe how EASY it is to make too!

Nacho Mama's Orange Creamsicle Pie (NO BAKE!)
serves 8
1 Lite pre-made Graham Cracker Crust
10z canned mandarin orange slices, drained
3T Smucker's Sweet Orange Marmalade
1 eight ounce tub of Fat Free whipped topping

1. Combine orange slices with marmalade and spread evenly over the crust.
2. Top with whipped topping and SERVE!!! That's it! (NOTE: the topping in the photo is not very fluffy because I was too impatient to completely defrost it before spreading on the pie. This made it even more like a creamsicle, but not as pretty looking as if I had let it completely thaw first.)
This is seriously yummy folks. I even made a "Peaches and Cream Pie" with 10 oz of drained canned *peaches* and Smucker's "Orchard's Finest" peach preserves. This was super yummy and, I thought, a fitting tribute to my favorite Georgia peach, Miss Paula Deen!

After plugging in all the ingredients on the WW website, the pointsplus for this recipe came out at only FOUR pointsplus per serving! That was almost as sweet as the pie itself. :) This is a great recipe for any time of year, but now (right before Thanksgiving) is when baking items like those pie crusts and the whipped topping go on sale, so it's a great time to stock up!

I had so much fun experimenting with these Smucker's products! For more info on their Spreading Smucker’s® Traditions Recipe and Essay Contest, please visit the Smucker’s website where you can find the competition, in English and Spanish: www.smuckers.com or www.smuckersenespanol.com.

I'll definitely be preparing one of these pies for the holidays-please let me know if you give my creamsicle pie a try!
Wishing you love with extra cheese-
